According to news.com.au, Warren was the only model above a size 8 to be featured in the annual swimwear parade which features designs from several prominent Australian swimwear labels such as Pam Pam, Fella and Camp Cove Swim.

And although the Australian fashion industry may still have a long way to go before one-super-skinny-size-fits-all becomes a thing of the past, the appearance of the Brisbane-born model shows that the industry is finally embracing size diversity.

"It’s about embracing the body you have got, rather than wishing for something you don’t have."

Besides shaking up the Australian fashion world one strut at a time, Warren also features on the June issue of Women’s Health and has a cool 200,000 followers on Instagram.

One person who will surely be ecstatic over her appearance is fellow plus-size model and Sports Illustrated pin-up, Robyn Lawley.

The Australian supermodel has been an advocate for body diversity for years and is currently starring in a new Bras n Things campaign, alongside Samantha Harris and Elle Ferguson, that celebrates body confidence.
